Questions - Government Shutdown - October 6-7, 2013

1* How
closely have you followed recent news reports about the federal government
shutdown?

2* In
terms of your own personal life, how much of an impact have you felt from the
shutdown?

3*
Looking ahead, how will the shutdown impact the overall economy? Will it
have a very positive impact, a somewhat positive impact, no impact, a somewhat
negative impact or a very negative impact?

4*
Looking ahead again, in terms of your own life, will the shutdown have a very
positive impact, a somewhat positive impact, no impact, a somewhat negative
impact, or a very negative impact?

5* Some
members of Congress refuse to approve a budget unless it slows or stops funding
for the new health care law. Would you rather have Congress end the government
shutdown by authorizing spending for the health care law at existing levels or
would you rather continue the shutdown until spending for that law is cut?
